week 6

[That certainly was a rude awakening. The champions may have lost their nun and their Doctor but they've gained two very important things: freedom from the simulation they've been living in for the past several weeks and a demoted Xander. Some of them may still desire his head on a plate but, like it or not, he is one of them once more.

There's no sign of life in the spaceport aside from PAL's omnipresent voice and SIS, the helpful asSIStant who has some control over certain heres and theres in the spaceport. She is available at all times and can appear anywhere if called.

The only area unexplorable so far are the double doors by the laundry room. They're locked tight and no amount of kicking or warpstriking will open them. But perhaps they'll open in due time.]

[Hey Junpei. Nari will just quietly join you and stare at the table.

You know.

Because how do you even start talking about that week?]

[It's a full two minutes before Junpei even recognizes she's there.]

Oh. Hey. Hi. ...Every day we get to meet's a good day, huh?

[He's. Kind of trying.]

.... I said that, didn't I......... It's still true.

[Someone sounds utterly drained.]

Having any troubles with turbo arm?

Come on, it's been at least half a year. I don't even notice it anymore.

[It's not entirely true, but neither is it entirely false. He rubs a metal thumb over the edge of his coffee mug handle.]

...Hey, I, ah. Wanted to apologize. If that's cool.

I find that a little hard to believe since I don't know how it's temperature regulated.

[That really gets her attention.]

Apologize? For what?

For being an asswipe at the trial. I mean, this trial. The one that happened most recently, chronologically.

I thought someone really did it for Cee. And that if I told them it was pointless, they'd give it up.
